Violetta is a young princess who wants to be treated just like her big brothers, who are training to be knights. But her father insists that she act ladylike and get married. So Violetta decides to show everyone what she's made of - by disguising herself as a boy and taking part in a knights' jousting tournament! "Violetta's intelligence and perseverance shine through from first to last.... The heroine earns her triumph with believable determination, and readers young and old will root for her from start to finish." - Publishers Weekly, starred review "Droll fun." Kirkus Reviews
